Capacitance interface circuit

ABSTRACT

A capacitance interface circuit is provided. An external inductive capacitor is divided into a variable portion and an invariable portion. The capacitance of an internal adjustable capacitor is designed to be equal or close to the fixed capacitance of the external inductive capacitor. The internal adjustable capacitor is used for storing charges having a polarity opposite to that of the invariable portion of the external inductive capacitor in order to neutralize the effect of the invariable portion of the external inductive capacitor. Thus, a charge converter composed of a fully-differential amplifier and feedback capacitors needs only work on the variable portion of the external inductive capacitor, and accordingly the accuracy in subsequent data processing is increased.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

1. Field of the Invention

The present invention generally relates to an interface circuit, and more particularly, to a capacitance interface circuit.

2. Description of Related Art

FIG. 1 is a circuit diagram of a capacitance interface circuit 100 disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 6,452,514. FIG. 2 is an operation timing diagram of the capacitance interface circuit 100 in FIG. 1. Referring to both FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the capacitance interface circuit 100 includes a sampling switch 101, a reset switch 103, a control means 105, a measurement means 107, a charge cancellation means 109, a buffer B, and capacitors Ci and Cs. In the capacitance interface circuit 100, the capacitor Cs is first reset according to a reset signal RES. Then, the capacitor Ci is charged. Next, charges stored in the capacitor Ci are conducted/transferred into the capacitor Cs through charge pump means. Finally, the charges stored in the capacitor Cs are measured to determine the capacitance of the capacitor Ci.

It should be mentioned herein that the charges accumulated in the capacitor Cs form the output voltage Vout of the capacitance interface circuit 100. As shown in FIG. 2, the charges in the capacitor Cs are accumulated at each rising edge of a signal received at the end Tx of the capacitor Ci. The voltages V₁-V_(N) corresponding to the charges accumulated by the capacitor Cs during each period (i.e., each rising edge can be considered as a period) have following values:

V=Vp*Ci/(Ci+Cs);

V ₂ =Vp*Ci/(Ci+Cs)*[1+Cs/(Ci+Cs)];

V ₃ =Vp*Ci/(Ci+Cs)*{[1+Cs/(Ci+Cs)+[Cs/(Ci+Cs)]̂2];

V ₄ =Vp*Ci/(Ci+Cs)*{[1+Cs/(Ci+Cs)+[Cs/(Ci+Cs)]̂2+[Cs/(Ci+Cs)]̂3];

. . . ; and

V _(N) =Vp*Ci/(Ci+Cs)*{[1+Cs/(Ci+Cs)+[Cs/(Ci+Cs)]̂2+[Cs/(Ci+Cs)]̂3+ . . . +Cs/(Ci+Cs)]̂(N−1)],

wherein Ci is the capacitance of the capacitor Ci; Cs is the capacitance of the capacitor Cs; and Vp is a positive reference voltage of the signal received at the end Tx of the capacitor Ci.

Accordingly, different amount of charges are accumulated by the capacitor Cs during each period (i.e., (V₂−V₁)≠(V₃−V₂)≠(V₄−V₃)≠ . . . ≠(V_(N)−V_(N−1))). Thus, in order to make the capacitor Cs to accumulate the same or similar amount of charges during each period, the capacitance of the capacitor Cs has to be designed to be much greater than that of the capacitor Ci. However, such a design makes it difficult to dispose the capacitor Cs in an integrated circuit (IC).

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The present invention provides a capacitance interface circuit including a first capacitor, four switches, two reset switches, two feedback capacitors, a fully-differential amplifier, a control unit, and an cancellation means. The two feedback capacitors are usually not very large therefore can be disposed in an integrated circuit (IC). The first capacitor is an external inductive capacitor, and which is divided into a variable portion and an invariable portion. The control unit generates at least two control signals and a reset signal to control the operations of all the switches and the cancellation means. The cancellation means cancels the invariable portion of the external inductive capacitor so that a charge converter composed of the fully-differential amplifier and the feedback capacitors needs only work on the variable portion of the external inductive capacitor and accordingly the accuracy in subsequent data processing is increased.

DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

Reference will now be made in detail to the present preferred embodiments of the invention, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. Wherever possible, the same reference numbers are used in the drawings and the description to refer to the same or like parts.

The first terminal of the switch 404 receives the negative reference voltage Vrefn, the second terminal of the switch 404 is coupled to the second terminal of the switch 403, and the control terminal of the switch 404 receives the control signal CTR1.

The first terminal of the switch 405 is coupled to the second terminal of the capacitor Cin1, and the control terminal of the switch 405 receives the control signal CTR1. The first terminal of the switch 406 is coupled to the second terminal of the capacitor Cin1, and the control terminal of the switch 406 receives the control signal CTR2.

The first terminal of the switch 407 is coupled to the second terminal of the capacitor Cin2, and the control terminal of the switch 407 receives the control signal CTR1. The first terminal of the switch 408 is coupled to the second terminal of the capacitor Cin2, and the control terminal of the switch 408 receives the control signal CTR2. The positive input terminal of the fully-differential amplifier 411 is coupled to the second terminals of the switches 405 and 407, the negative input terminal of the fully-differential amplifier 411 is coupled to the second terminals of the switches 406 and 408, and the common mode receiving terminal of the fully-differential amplifier 411 receives a common mode voltage Vcm.

The first terminal of the feedback capacitor Cint1 is coupled to the second terminal of the switch 405, and the second terminal of the feedback capacitor Cint1 is coupled to the negative output terminal of the fully-differential amplifier 411. The first terminal of the reset switch 409 is coupled to the first terminal of the feedback capacitor Cint1, the second terminal of the reset switch 409 is coupled to the second terminal of the feedback capacitor Cint1, and the control terminal of the reset switch 409 receives the reset signal RES. The first terminal of the feedback capacitor Cint2 is coupled to the second terminal of the switch 406, and the second terminal of the feedback capacitor Cint2 is coupled to the positive output terminal of the fully-differential amplifier 411. The first terminal of the reset switch 410 is coupled to the first terminal of the feedback capacitor Cint2, the second terminal of the reset switch 410 is coupled to the second terminal of the feedback capacitor Cint2, and the control terminal of the reset switch 410 receives the reset signal RES.

In the present embodiment, the control signals CTR1 and CTR2 and the reset signal RES are generated by the control unit 412. To be specific, FIG. 5 is an operation timing diagram of the capacitance interface circuit 400 in FIG. 4. Referring to both FIG. 4 and FIG. 5, the control unit 412 is coupled to the control terminals of the switches 401-408 and the reset switches 409 and 410 for generating the control signals CTR1 and CTR2 and the reset signal RES and controlling the operations of the switches 401-408 and the reset switches 409 and 410. Herein the control signals CTR1 and CTR2 have a phase difference of 180°.

As shown in FIG. 5, the voltage on the node Va in FIG. 4 is alternatively the positive reference voltage Vrefp and the negative reference voltage Vrefn in response to the control signal CTR1. Similarly, the voltage on the node Vb in FIG. 4 is alternatively the negative reference voltage Vrefn and the positive reference voltage Vrefp in response to the control signal CTR2. In the present embodiment, the switches 401, 404, 405, and 407 are turned on when the control signal CTR1 is enabled and turned off when the control signal CTR1 is disabled. Similarly, the switches 402, 403, 406, and 408 are turned on when the control signal CTR2 is enabled and turned off when the control signal CTR2 is disabled. Besides, the reset switches 409 and 410 are turned on when the reset signal RES is enabled and turned off when the reset signal RES is disabled.

As described above, if the capacitors Cin1 and Cin2 are respectively an external inductive capacitor of the capacitance interface circuit 400 and the capacitances of the feedback capacitors Cint1 and Cint2 are both Cint, the output voltage Vout of the capacitance interface circuit 400 is in direct ratio to the capacitance difference between the capacitors Cin1 and Cin2.

To be specific, the feedback capacitors Cint1 and Cint2 accumulate charges at each rising/falling edge of the control signals CTR1 and CTR2, and the voltages V₁−V_(N) corresponding to the charges accumulated by the feedback capacitors Cint1 and Cint2 during each period (i.e., each rising/falling edge can be considered a period) have following values:

V ₁=1*(Vrefp−Vrefn)*(Cin1−Cin2)/Cint;

V ₂=2*(Vrefp−Vrefn)*(Cin1−Cin2)/Cint;

V ₃=3*(Vrefp−Vrefn)*(Cin1−Cin2)/Cint;

. . . ; and

V _(N) =N*(Vrefp−Vrefn)*(Cin1−Cin2)/Cint,

wherein the charges accumulated by the feedback capacitors Cint1 and Cint2 during each period have the same or very similar values since the capacitances of the feedback capacitors Cint1 and Cint2 are both Cint. Namely, there is:

(V ₂ −V ₁)=(V ₃ −V ₂)=(V ₄ −V ₃)= . . . =(V _(N) −V _(N−1)), or

(V ₂ −V ₁)≈(V ₃ −V ₂)≈(V ₄ −V ₃)≈ . . . ≈(V _(N) −V _(N−1)).

Assuming that the capacitor Cin1 has a variable portion Cchg1 and an invariable portion Cfix1 and the capacitor Cin2 has a variable portion Cchg2 and an invariable portion Cfix2, then there is (Cin1−Cin2)=(Cchg1−Cchg2)+(Cfix1−Cfix2). Accordingly, the invariable portions Cfix1 are Cfix2 cancel each other out.

It can be understood based on forgoing description that charges having a polarity opposite to that of the external inductive capacitor Cin1 are stored in the external inductive capacitor Cin2 for cancelling the effect of the invariable portion, so that the charge converter composed of the fully-differential amplifier 411 and the feedback capacitors Cint1 and Cint2 needs only work on the variable portions of the capacitors Cin1 and Cin2 and accordingly the accuracy in subsequent data processing is increased.

On the other hand, assuming that the capacitor Cin1 is an external inductive capacitor of the capacitance interface circuit 400, the capacitor Cin2 is an internal adjustable capacitor (for example, a variable capacitor; however, the present invention is not limited thereto) of the capacitance interface circuit 400, and the capacitances of the feedback capacitors Cint1 and Cint2 are both Cint, the capacitance of the capacitor Cin1 can be divided into a fixed capacitance Cfix1 and a variable capacitance Cchg1 (i.e., Cin1=Cfix1+Cchg1). Herein the fixed capacitance Cfix1 can be considered as a fixed value within a short period since it only slowly changes along with some external environmental factors (for example, temperature, humidity, and pressure, etc).

When the fully-differential amplifier 411 is not saturated (i.e., the fully-differential amplifier 411 operates within a linear region), a random/approximate capacitance Cin2′ is preset such that there is Cchg′=Cin1−Cin2′=Cfix1+Cchg1−Cin2′. Herein an inaccurate value of Cchg′ is obtained. If Cchg′ is only slowly and slightly changed during a long time, it can be considered as a portion of the fixed capacitance Cfix1 and merged into the capacitor Cin2. Thus, the capacitor Cin2 satisfies Cin2=Cin2′+Cchg′=Cin2′+(Cin1−Cin2′)=Cin1, and herein it is considered that Cchg=0 and Cin2=Cin1=Cfix1. Accordingly, the capacitance of the capacitor Cin2 is substantially equal or close to the fixed capacitance Cfix1. Namely, Cchg′ obtained with Cchg=0 can be used for adjusting the capacitance of the capacitor Cin2. In addition, the capacitance of the capacitor Cin2 is equal or close to the invariable portion Cfix1 when Cchg′ is equal or close to 0.

Once the capacitance of the capacitor Cin2 is substantially equal or close to the fixed capacitance Cfix1, the output voltage Vout of the capacitance interface circuit 400 is in direct ratio to the variable capacitance Cchg1. Accordingly, the voltages V₁−V_(N) corresponding to the charges accumulated by the capacitors Cint1 and Cint2 during each period (each rising/falling edge can be considered as a period) have following values:

V ₁=1*(Vrefp−Vrefn)*Cchg1/Cint;

V ₂=2*(Vrefp−Vrefn)*Cchg1/Cint;

V ₃=3*(Vrefp−Vrefn)*Cchg1/Cint;

. . . ; and

V _(N) =N*(Vrefp−Vrefn)*Cchg1/Cint.

Accordingly, the charges accumulated by the feedback capacitors Cint1 and Cint2 during each period have also the same or very similar values. Namely, there is:

(V ₂ −V ₁)=(V ₃ −V ₂)=(V ₄ −V ₃)= . . . =(V _(N) −V _(N−1)), or

(V ₂ −V ₁)≈(V ₃ −V ₂)≈(V ₄ −V ₃)≈ . . . ≈(V _(N) −V _(N−1)).

According to foregoing description, when the capacitance of the internal adjustable capacitor Cin2 is designed to be the same as or close to the fixed capacitance Cfix1 of the external inductive capacitor Cin1 and charges having a polarity opposite to that of the capacitor Cin1 are stored in the capacitor Cin2 for neutralizing the effect of the invariable portion of the capacitor Cin1, the charge converter composed of the fully-differential amplifier 411 and the feedback capacitors Cint1 and Cint2 needs only work on the variable portion of the capacitor Cin1, so that the accuracy in subsequent data processing is increased.

Third Embodiment

FIG. 6 is a circuit diagram of a capacitance interface circuit 600 according to the third embodiment of the present invention. Referring to both FIG. 4 and FIG. 6, elements similar to those of the capacitance interface circuit 400 are denoted with similar reference numerals in FIG. 6. It should be noted that the control terminal of the switch 403 receives the control signal CTR2, and the control terminal of the switch 404 receives the control signal CTR1. The control terminal of the switch 603 receives the control signal CTR1, and the control terminal of the switch 604 receives the control signal CTR2. The second terminal of the switch 407 is coupled to the second terminal of the switch 405, and the second terminal of the switch 408 is coupled to the second terminal of the switch 406. The second terminal of the switch 607 is coupled to the second terminal of the switch 606, and the second terminal of the switch 608 is coupled to the second terminal of the switch 605.

FIG. 7 is an operation timing diagram of the capacitance interface circuit 600 in FIG. 6. Referring to both FIG. 6 and FIG. 7, the control unit 612 is coupled to the control terminals of the switches 601-608 and the reset switches 609 and 610, and which generates the control signals CTR1 and CTR2 and the reset signal RES to control the operations of the switches 601-608 and the reset switches 609 and 610.

As described above, assuming that the capacitors Cin1 and Cin2 are respectively an external inductive capacitor of the capacitance interface circuit 400 and the capacitances of the feedback capacitors Cint1 and Cint2 (each rising/falling edge can be considered as a period), the output voltage Vout of the capacitance interface circuit 400 is then in direct ratio to the capacitance difference between the capacitors Cin1 and Cin2.

To be specific, the capacitors Cint1 and Cint2 accumulate charges at each rising/falling edge of the control signals CTR1 and CTR2, and the V₁−V_(N) corresponding to the charges accumulated by the capacitors Cint1 and Cint2 during each period (each rising/falling edge can be considered as a period) have following values:

V ₁=1*(Vrefp−Vrefn)*(Cin1−Cin2)/Cint;

V ₂=2*(Vrefp−Vrefn)*(Cin1−Cin2)/Cint;

V ₃=3*(Vrefp−Vrefn)*(Cin1−Cin2)/Cint;

. . . ; and

V _(N) =N*(Vrefp−Vrefn)*(Cin1−Cin2)/Cint,

wherein the charges accumulated by the feedback capacitors Cint1 and Cint2 during each period have the same or very similar values since the capacitances of the feedback capacitors Cint1 and Cint2 are both Cint. Namely, there is:

(V ₂ −V ₁)=(V ₃ −V ₂)=(V ₄ −V ₃)= . . . =(V _(N) −V _(N−1)) or

(V ₂ −V ₁)≈(V ₃ −V ₂)≈(V ₄ −V ₃)≈ . . . ≈(V _(N) −V _(N−1)).

Assuming that the capacitor Cin1 has a variable portion Cchg1 and an invariable portion Cfix1 and the capacitor Cin2 has a variable portion Cchg2 and an invariable portion Cfix2, then there is (Cin1−Cin2)=(Cchg1−Cchg2)+(Cfix1−Cfix2). Accordingly, the invariable portions Cfix1 and Cfix2 can cancel each other out.

Based on foregoing description, when the external inductive capacitor Cin2 stores charges having the same polarity as that of the external inductive capacitor Cin1 and the fully-differential amplifier 611 cancels the effect of the invariable portions (because the second terminals of the switches 607 and 608 are coupled differently as those of the switches 407 and 408), the charge converter composed of the fully-differential amplifier 611 and the feedback capacitors Cint1 and Cint2 needs only work on the variable portions of the capacitors Cin1 and Cin2, so that the accuracy in subsequent data processing is increased.

On the other hand, assuming that the capacitor Cin1 is an external inductive capacitor of the capacitance interface circuit 400, the capacitor Cin2 is an internal adjustable capacitor (for example, a variable capacitor; however, the present invention is not limited thereto) of the capacitance interface circuit 400, and the capacitances of the feedback capacitors Cint1 and Cint2 are both Cint, the capacitance of the capacitor Cin1 is divided into a fixed capacitance Cfix1 and a variable capacitance Cchg1 (i.e., Cin1=Cfix1+Cchg1). Herein the fixed capacitance Cfix1 can be considered as a fixed value during a short period since it only changes along with some external environmental factors (for example, temperature, humidity, and pressure, etc).

When the fully-differential amplifier 611 is not saturated, a random/approximate capacitance Cin2′ is preset such that there is Cchg′=Cin1−Cin2′=Cfix1+Cchg1−Cin2′. Herein an inaccurate Cchg′ is obtained. When Cchg′ only slowly and slightly changes during a long time, it can be considered as a portion of the fixed capacitance Cfix1 and merged into the capacitor Cin2. Thus, the capacitor Cin2 satisfies Cin2=Cin2′+Cchg′=Cin2′+(Cin1−Cin2′)=Cin1, and herein it is considered that Cchg=0 and Cin2=Cin1=Cfix1. Accordingly, the capacitance of the capacitor Cin2 is substantially equal or close to the fixed capacitance Cfix1. Namely, Cchg′ obtained with Cchg=0 can be used for adjusting the capacitance of the capacitor Cin2. Besides, the capacitance of the capacitor Cin2 is equal or close to the fixed capacitance Cfix1 when Cchg′ is equal or close to 0.

According to foregoing description, when the capacitance of the internal adjustable capacitor Cin2 is designed to be the same as or close to the fixed capacitance Cfix1 of the external inductive capacitor Cin1 and the capacitor Cin2 stores charges having a polarity same to that of the capacitor Cin1, the effect of the invariable portion (because the second terminals of the switches 607 and 608 are coupled differently as those of the switches 407 and 408) of the capacitor Cin1 can be cancelled by the fully-differential amplifier 611, so that the charge converter composed of the fully-differential amplifier 611 and the feedback capacitors Cint1 and Cint2 needs only work on the variable portion of the capacitor Cin1 and accordingly the accuracy in subsequent data processing is increased.

Referring to both FIG. 4 and FIG. 8, elements similar to those of the capacitance interface circuit 400 are denoted with similar reference numerals in FIG. 8. The difference between the capacitance interface circuits 800 and 400 is that the capacitance interface circuit 800 has another eight switches 813-820 which form a chopper stabilization circuit. The first terminal of the switch 813 is coupled to the second terminal of the switch 805, the second terminal of the switch 813 is coupled to the positive input terminal of the fully-differential amplifier 811, and the control terminal of the switch 813 receives the control signal CTR1.

In the present embodiment, the operation and function of the capacitance interface circuit 800 are similar to those of the capacitance interface circuit 400 therefore will not be described herein. In addition, because the chopper stabilization circuit composed of the switches 813-820 eliminates not only the offset error but also the flicker noise of the fully-differential amplifier 811, the capacitance interface circuit 800 is more stably and accurate than the capacitance interface circuit 400.
